里程碑时刻：AAM 的第一份 ESG 报告

想象一下这样一个路线图，其中每个里程碑都通向更环保、更可持续的未来。2020 年，AAM 发布了首份环境、社会和治理 (ESG) 报告，涵盖 2019 日历年的表现，标志着其在这一征程上迈出了重要一步。这份报告不仅是一份文件，更是一份宣言，彰显了 AAM 致力于为员工、客户、社区及利益相关者创造更安全、更环保、更具包容性的可持续发展未来的承诺。

AAM 的 ESG 工作的重要性怎么强调都不为过。作为一家全球性公司，我们明白我们的员工、客户、供应商、股东和我们运营所在的社区都受到我们实施的举措的影响。认识到这一点，AAM 根据内部和外部利益相关者的意见，确定了 15 个需要监控、审查和报告进展的重大主题。这些主题反映了我们的努力可以推动有意义的变革并与新兴的全球法规保持一致的关键领域。

采购可再生和无碳能源是 AAM 实现净零排放目标战略的核心。通过结合直接公用事业采购、可再生能源证书 (REC) 以及无排放能源信用额度 (EFEC)，AAM 正致力于实现到 2035 年 100% 使用无碳和可再生能源的目标，其中美国的中期目标是到 2025 年实现这一目标。2023 年，AAM 超额完成了其在美国的目标，实现了 75% 的能源来自可再生能源或通过可再生能源证书和无排放能源信用额度抵消，超过了 2023 年 50% 的初始目标。

在 AAM 开始报告 ESG 数据时，尚未设立专门负责企业可持续发展的团队。相反，来自法务、财务和营销的跨职能团队合作编制了 ESG 相关信息。随着投资者和客户等外部利益相关者对更全面的环境、社会和公司治理 (ESG) 信息披露的需求增加，AAM 成立了企业可持续发展团队 (CST)。该团队现在与各个部门的主题专家密切合作，确保公司的 ESG 工作与业务战略保持一致并满足监管要求。

随着 AAM 企业可持续发展团队的不断发展，该组织得以建立更为正式的结构，包括设立执行专题负责人和专门的 ESG 倡导者。该框架使 AAM 能够识别新出现的 ESG 主题、评估潜在差距并制定有效的解决方案。随着 ESG 在全球市场上的重要性日益增加，AAM 始终致力于不断改进其流程，追求卓越，并确保我们的举措为所有利益相关者创造持久的价值。

AAM 第一份 ESG 报告的发布标志着公司迈向可持续未来的重要里程碑。展望未来，我们将继续评估我们的进展并设定新目标，以确保 AAM 保持在汽车行业 ESG 领导地位的前沿。通过我们对质量、卓越运营和技术领先的持续奉献，AAM 将继续在塑造一个更加可持续的世界中发挥重要作用。

自发布首份报告以来，AAM 在可持续发展和治理方面取得了长足进步。2023 年 ESG 展示了一些令人瞩目的成就：

  • 所有生产设施均通过 ISO 50001 认证
  • 获得 21 项质量表现奖
  • 实现 22,000+ 个综合日无可记录安全事故
  • 推出了一项新的网络安全意识计划 #AAMSecure
  • 被福布斯评为多元化最佳雇主
  • 推出 14 个主要全球产品计划
  • 被评为 2023 年汽车新闻 PACEpilot 计划决赛入围者
  • 超额完成 2023 年美国可再生能源和无碳能源目标
  • 供应商多元化支出同比增长 12%

“作为 AAM 企业可持续发展团队的一员，我感到非常充实，”可持续发展首席战略师 Alex Provencher 表示说：“在企业高层领导的大力支持下，ESG 理念于企业内部顺利实现扩张与发展，这有力彰显了 AAM 攻克挑战的实力以及持续进取、不断改进的坚定决心。”

《AAM 里程碑时刻》是一个月刊系列，旨在纪念和回顾 AAM 在 30 年间所取得的重要成就。从具有转折意义的创新和技术进步到作为 AAM DNA 一部分的基础计划和社区倡议，这些《AAM 里程碑时刻》将分别讲述 AAM 每一个重要故事。
